Well then that's easy, just use firing squads and then you won't know who killed him.
No, anyone who is willing to kill another human, signs up to do so, and is part of a mob who does, is in the same boat.
Eh, that just leads back into only bad people can kill which is just bad people winning again. Ultimately we need good people who are willing to do bad things. Though ideally there just shouldn't be execution.
We shouldn't. And if we were to make it "fair", anyone who is willing to participate in that kind of punishment would then be brought to justice under the same rule of law. So if one is willing to be an executioner, they to shall be executed. So the baddies would get their justice in the end too.
Then, we'd eventually either run out of peeps, or at least the "death is the answer" ones.
Womp Womp guess you'll have to write a letter about it.
Listen, you argued that the death sentence shouldn't exist or that every executioner should be given trial.
Before that, I argued that the death sentence shouldn't exist or that celebrities shouldn't be able to escape charges.
If anything, I think you're the one who needs to sober up, kid.
Hahaha!
No. Reading comprehension is more than just looking at words.
I stated, as a thought experiment, that if the penalty for murder is death, then all who participate will end up included in that sentencing if there are no differences in, who committed murder, or why.
I then made the statement of my belief, which seems to also be yours, that there should be no death penalty.
If you want someone to just argue with, might I suggest checking out an LLM? Then you won't have to expose your ignorance to all who can read and comprehend. Whom, may also be tagging your username with words you wouldn't like, to remember this is person just may be a half-wit, or troll.
Edit: omg 🤣🤣 are you really down voting my replies, like it means something on lemmy? Just 'cause you don't like to be responded to, or that other people have their own opinions, or what there little dude/dudette?
Yes, but also, maybe don't feed the troll.
